Stroman was signed to the active roster from the Bears' practice squad on Thursday, Larry Mayer of the team's official site reports.
Stroman appeared in two games with the Bears last season and spent training camp with them as well, but he didn't make the final cut and ended up on the practice squad. However, with Kyler Gordon (hand) going on injured reserve Thursday, Stroman will now be called upon again to contribute. He should serve a depth role in the secondary Sunday against the Buccaneers.

Bears' Greg Stroman: Joining the Bears
Rotowire
Stroman signed a one-year deal with Chicago on Thursday.
Stroman will sign with the Bears after trying out for the team during this past week's voluntary minicamp. The 2018 seventh-rounder tallied 38 tackles, four passes defended and one interception over 15 games during his rookie season with the Commanders, but managed to play just three defensive and 43 special-teams snaps while spending most of the next two seasons on injured reserve. Stroman was waived in August of 2021 after starting training camp on the PUP list for Washington and signed with Buffalo's practice squad in December.

Redskins' Greg Stroman: Handles big role as a rookie
Rotowire
Stroman finished his rookie season with 37 tackles (30 solo), an interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 15 games, playing 386 snaps on offense and 179 on special teams.
The seventh-round pick took his lumps in coverage, but he also displayed some playmaking skills and was a regular contributor on special teams. Stroman might challenge Fabian Moreau for the nickelback job in 2019, or perhaps even push for a starting job outside if Washington decides to move on from Josh Norman.
